Kamala Harris’ schedule; Donald Trump returns to insults; latest polls and updates on the vice president

Donald Trump on Wednesday unleashed a series of attacks on his likely novel opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, whom he called “the new victim to beat” and accused of misleading the public about President Joe Biden’s ability to seek a second term.

The rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, was his first public campaign event since Biden withdrew from the 2024 race and Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee. The rally ended minutes before Biden addressed the nation, in which he explained that he had dropped his reelection bid to “pass the torch” to Harris, who is 22 years younger than him.
